Born into a family of privilege, raised with strict societal norms, and then widowed on the very day of her wedding day, Nicholette Everstone has no idea how to re-enter society after emerging from her two year mourning period spent abroad.
Returning to her home where everyone not only knows of her tragic wedding, her status as a wealthy heiress and are all too eager to pair her off with another husband, Nicholette wishes for nothing more than to be free from all the prying eyes and weighty expectations.
Can she forgive the man she holds responsible for her husband’s death? Can she free herself the societal expectations and marry for love? Can she let go of all she’s lost and allow herself the freedom to pursue happiness?
Dawn Crandall’s Enchanting Nicholette, is an enjoyable story of love, patience, and friendship mixed with strong family ties, questionable cultural standards, and stuffy upper-crust opinions.
